I think you mis-stated that last line:

> Leave US Strategic Command Launch Portal open for child to launch missiles against Ontario, Canada:

"Canada: Totally okay, these things happen."

I was 50/49.9/.1 the correction would be Canada being okay with Ontario being nuked, or the target changing to Quebec and Canada still being okay with it.

Quebec is the Texas of Canada, if I recall correctly.

There was a third, though unlikely option of the target switching to Alberta, but it turning out to be okay, because it just happened to coincide with a sudden invasion of hyper-intelligent rats, and the human population had already evac'd.

That being said, thank you. You genuinely brightened my day.

I guess that’s one way to explain to Alberta the eventual consequences of its rat policies.
> Quebec is the Texas of Canada, if I recall correctly.

That's my understanding too. Or California with a more serious Calexit movement.

As someone from Ontario who moved to Alberta, you deserve a Chinook when it's -30 out.
Haha, well I'm not sure how Canada feels about Ontario. I'm sure there a few places they wouldn't mind. However, they would probably still say sorry regardless.
